This part of the spec is quite "tricky". Indeed, table 34 states that the type 
should be name. However, an indirect object (i.e. reference) is allowed to 
replace *any* object - in that case it has to *point* to an object which is a 
name.

I refer to section 7.3.10 of the spec:

This statement even refers to an example which matches the replacement of an 
array element by a reference.
